So it's the day before the big day and you have absolutely nothing planned. Kudos.

As the queen of procrastination all I can say is "been there, done that".

So I've put together 15 quick and easy (some stupidly easy) ideas to do for Valentine's Day. Also, my husband is restlessly waiting for this post to be written, so I made sure I would be 100% okay with him doing any of the things on the list.

I knew for my daughter's preschool class I didn't want to give candy for Valentine's Day. I figured they would all be getting enough of that. I did want to give them something though that they could play with, so I thought...plahdough!

My daughter LOVES to play with playdough and asks me to make it all the time, so it came naturally to think of putting it into her valentines.

Since we will not be hosting Thanksgiving this year, I thought I'd do a throwback of what we did last year. Enjoy!!

What a whirlwind weekend! Haha, say that ten times fast.

Now that the hustle and bustle of Thanksgiving is over I can finally take time to share what I did for my Thanksgiving table. As I said in my sneak peek post I didn't use traditional colors, but put in a few fallish items to help it fit the season.

Blue and yellow were the color of choice this year. The color inspiration came from my grandmothers china that I got to use for the first time. It became my jumping off point.

With that, I headed to the store with my blue and yellow colors in mind. This is what I came up with.

Last month was my daughters birthday and she requested a princess party, and being her 5th birthday, I wanted to make it a big one.

I knew I didn't want everything to be overwhelmingly pink (a few boys were coming) so I added in some yellow and purple. So basically, it still turned out pretty feminine, but at least it wasn't all pink.
